“Hot Ponderosas are an interesting variation of garlic toast baguettes that work nicely for outdoor grilling and cookouts. We cooked this one up while I was living in the mountains and cooking almost all of our meals outside. Be careful - they will flame FAST, so be quick with the tongs!” - by MCMIGUEL

Ingredients

1 cup butter
5 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 1/2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
3 1/2 tablespoons herbes de Provence
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 dash Worcestershire sauce
1 thin baguette, cut into thick slices

Directions

Preheat the grill for high heat.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, and mix in the garlic, blue cheese, herbes de Provence, red pepper, sea salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce.
Dunk each baguette slice in the butter mixture to thoroughly coat. Place slices in a bowl, and toss with any remaining butter mixture.
Place the baguette slices on the prepared grill, and toast 1 minute on both sides, or to desired doneness.

"I also thought that the recipe called for way too much red pepper flakes and herbes de Provence; I just used a little of each. I made these on the Foreman grill, and they turned out well, but I wouldn..." See more't mind doing them in the oven like garlic bread. We thought this was really tasty. Thanks, McMiguel!"
